In February, we were able to join up with all of the Finlays for a trip to El Paso (a family reunion visit to Steve and Alana and celebration of Brad and Margaret's 40th Anniversary). This whole group on the same airplane. It was quite the party.
We played a lot of musical chairs. Pass the baby, pick a kid, any kid and enjoy the flight.
We got in late on Friday night, so our first full day there was a Saturday. We drove to New Mexico for the weekend with some fun stops on the way. First, a street market in Las Cruces.
Followed by a stop for a picnic lunch at the park.
We took a train ride at the Toy Train Depot in Alamogordo, and also stopped at side shop to get some local flavors of chili powders.
And then headed to White Sands National Monument for sledding
and lots of dune jumping.
The miles and miles of gypsum sand is breath taking. Being able to sled in bare feet and t-shirts is pretty incredible.
A great way to start a fun trip.
